Cougar11 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 A few of my favorites are Stella, Stella Cidri, Kronenburg 1774, Firehouse, Crispin, and there are many German beers, but only if I can drink them on a patio outside a pub in Germany. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
